To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page. If you need help, check out Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. New users are also welcome to post any questions or concerns to the arrivals lounge. If you want some practice editing, please do so on our graffiti wall. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here. If you want to contribute with information about the place where you live, see Wikivoyage:Welcome, locals.

- Thank you, I've read some of those pages already, and I'll go and read the rest now. Twsabin (talk) 12:47, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
Hi there. Thanks for your kind offer to help make Hall a star! Just to let you know, there will be more discussion on that Star nomination (or at least, I hope there will be), and your input on that would be very welcome. The more participants, the better.
However, as you've probably seen, there's a disagreement going on that might not be resolved for a few days. Would you like a ping from me when the nomination discussion gets going again? All the best, ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 17:12, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- @ThunderingTyphoons!: Yes, I would like that very much, thanks! Sincerely, Twsabin (talk) 17:14, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- Amazing, thanks very much! --ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 17:19, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
Hiya, the discussion has resumed.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 09:19, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
- Disappointingly, I wasn't able to follow up on this in the intervening period, but I'll see if I can still contribute something. Twsabin (talk) 15:20, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello
[edit]Hello, please do not delete Laiwu's columns of keeping safe and linking. Although Laiwu now belongs to Jinan, I think it is a good choice to add these two items to Jinan's articles, but please do not delete them in Laiwu's articles, because the Jinan article does not cover Laiwu's travel information now. Thank you Hanruixuan1 (talk) 02:05, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Hanruixuan1: I've reverted your edit, at least for the timebeing. Twsabin clearly outlined their proposal on Talk:Jinan; unilaterally reverting their edits when they clearly outlined their intent is not a constructive approach to contributing. Consider making your argument on Talk:Jinan or Talk:Laiwu. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 02:18, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Hanruixuan1: I understand the objection. What I did was a part of an effort to make Jinan a districted city (like Dalian, for example). If there is going to a be a consensus to district Jinan, Laiwu's travel information will in fact be covered in the Jinan article, as I show here: User:Twsabin/sandbox. I believe that districts don't have to include all of the standard sections like Stay safe and Connect unless there's something specific to say about that district in relation to the city. I cordially invite you to share your views on districting Jinan, to work on the draft of Jinan, and on the potential subsequent district articles.

Username
[edit]@SHB2000: I have been known on this project as twsabin. I am just letting you (as one of the administrators) know that my username was changed globally to Alalch E., per request. (This is connected to my resuming activity on the English Wikipedia where I am no longer blocked; normally, I will keep contributing here as well). All of my signatures left up to this point are red links, since I do not have a local user page, so a redirect was not created. Regards, Alalch E. (talk) 05:10, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Alalch E.: (NGL, I was almost going to type Twsabin) that should be fine (I saw your account being renamed in the logs earlier today). I know some users like to create a redirect for their old username, but it's completely up to you whether you choose to or not. Anyway, great to hear that you've been unblocked on enwiki :-). --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 05:14, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
Happy holidays!
